Chapter 2783

Author: Sienna Yates
Not long ago, Sharon had watched Thomas bring the blade down in one clean stroke, and the shock of it hadn't left her.

For now, she didn't dare provoke him again.

The car pulled up outside an exclusive private-dining restaurant.

The table in their private room was laid with all the dishes she loved, steam curling up from every plate. But Sharon had no appetite at all. She held her spoon for a long time without taking a single bite.

Thomas placed a piece of fish on her plate, his voice flat.

    "The more I lose faith in Julliard, the more likely I am to work with Vince," Sharon said.Wendy asked, "Sharon, so what are you going to do?"Sharon looked out at the scenery and said nothing.…As soon as Doug learned that Sharon had gone to meet Vince, he immediately told Thomas.Thomas was silent for a moment, then said coolly, "It's just one meeting. It doesn't mean anything."Doug said urgently, "But if she really had no intention of it, she wouldn't have met him at all."Vince is a scheming old fox. Even Ms. Lilo doesn't dare go up against him, for fear that one slip would hand him something he could use against her."How could a sheltered heiress like Ms. McKinzie possibly play mind games with an old fox like that? He'll chew her up and leave nothing behind."It wasn't that Doug looked down on Sharon.It was just that with a man like Vince, not only Carmen, but even Thomas himself could fall into his trap if he let his guard down for a second.How could someone as sw

    Vince picked up his teacup, took a light sip, and smiled at Sharon. "Besides, if what I ask of you goes too far, you're completely free to refuse. You don't even have to do it."You can back out at any time. No need to worry about me cheating you."For you, it's a deal where you can't lose. Isn't it?"Sharon looked at him. "And if, after you've helped me, I burn the bridge and never do what I promised, what would you do then?"Vince spread his hands and laughed. "First of all, I trust your character."Unless, of course, I asked you to do something truly immoral."And naturally, if you end up doing nothing at all, there's really nothing I can do about it."Sharon asked, "So what you're saying is that whether I keep my promise is entirely up to my conscience?"Vince said, "Yes, more or less. But I believe you'll keep your word."Sharon was silent for a moment. "I'll need to go home and think it over."Vince looked perfectly accommodating. "Take your time. Whenever you've made u

    Sharon was silent for a few seconds, then gave a slight nod. "Yes. Tell him I agree to meet Vince."…In his hospital room, Julliard ended the call with his subordinate. His fingertips lightly stroked the phone screen as a faint smile slowly spread across his lips."Thomas, oh, Thomas," he murmured to himself. "Push her even harder. Once she's backed into a corner, she'll walk obediently down the path I've laid out for her."She just had to see clearly that Thomas was an abyss and Vince was a predator.Then Sharon would understand that in this world, only he, Julliard, could truly protect and help her.And when that time came, she would have no choice but to stay by his side.The call over, Julliard's fingers still rested on the cool screen. He brushed the pad of his thumb over the name "Sharon McKinzie" in his call log. The scheming churning in his eyes finally settled into an exceedingly gentle smile.He made another call. His voice was still hoarse from his illness, but his

    Hearing this, Wendy's eyes lit up a little, and she turned to Sharon. "That's actually not a bad idea... If those two Ferreros go at each other's throats, you can finally catch your breath."Sharon raised her eyes and gave Julliard a long, searching look.She suddenly realized that the man in the hospital bed didn't seem quite the same as before.At some point, those eyes that had always been warm and smiling had taken on something she couldn't see through.Sharon was about to say something else when a bodyguard's hushed voice came from outside the door. "Ms. McKinzie, Thomas Ferrero says he wants to see you."The atmosphere in the room tensed at once.Wendy's face changed. "He's here again? How long did that last?"Sharon stood up, the gloom on her face deepening.She glanced at the door. The two bodyguards were already on high alert.But Julliard called out to her. "Sharon."Sharon turned back."Don't go." Julliard looked at her. "Let the bodyguards stop him. The more you

    Wendy couldn't help nodding. "He's not wrong. Thomas is telling everyone that Sharon is the one he's chosen. The Ferrero family has long since counted her as part of Thomas's faction. Even if Sharon does nothing at all, nobody's going to believe she's not involved."Sharon frowned slightly. She seemed to have considered this already.Julliard looked at her. "So instead of letting Thomas drag you into this mess, why not take the initiative and choose whoever poses the least threat to you?"At least Vince is level-headed. He cares about what he stands to gain. He won't go crazy the way Thomas does."Dealing with someone who's driven by self-interest is actually safer than dealing with someone driven by emotion."Sharon looked up at him. "You want me to go to Vince. What would he agree to? Keep Thomas away from me? Why would he help me?""Because you'd be helping him too," Julliard said. "Vince and Thomas are fighting over who becomes head of the family. Thomas has the backing of

    Julliard realized that Sharon had once again gone quite a while without contacting him or coming to visit.After looking into it, he discovered that Thomas had latched onto her again.Sharon seemed fed up with it and did everything she could to avoid him, yet there was no escaping a man so determined to hold on to her.In the end, she had no choice but to bring in the Kalen family's influence and manpower to keep Thomas away.When Julliard called, Sharon brought Wendy along to visit him at the hospital.Sharon looked a little thinner than before. A faint shadow of gloom and exhaustion hung over her face.Julliard studied her complexion and asked gently, "Sharon, you don't look well. Are you feeling sick?"Sharon said, "I'm fine. Work has just been a bit tiring."Beside her, Wendy pursed her lips and couldn't help speaking up. "It's not her body that's sick, it's her heart."Julliard knew Wendy was the outspoken type who could never keep anything to herself.Hearing this, he t

    Hearing Carter's words, Sharon realized—with a quiet jolt—that he was choosing her.It caught her off guard, but only just. In truth, it made a strange kind of sense. This was who Carter had always been: cool-headed, rational to a fault.Even now, she could feel a toxic stare boring into her.She

    When he heard Kelly's words, Thomas raised his eyebrows slightly."Kelly, didn't you once say no when I offered to deal with her for you?"Kelly froze.He was right. He had suggested it before, and she had refused.All she wanted then was to win over Carter. She wasn't some cold-blooded monster

    Carter's gaze flickered slightly as he looked at Kelly. She avoided his eyes, maintaining a strained smile on her face. But the subtle flicker in her eyes betrayed her true emotions.His expression darkened.That look… was guilt. Could there be more to this than Kelly had let on?Nate was about t
